After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

After saving the emails from windows live mail, why not open them on my computer as the file extension is wlmail.fol?

wlmail.fol is a tiny text giving the name of the folder. The exported messages will have filenames like 00D13E83 - 000025DF.eml. If you don't see all of the files like this, your export probably did not work properly.

For a successful export, follow these directions:

  1. Set Windows Live Mail to work offline before starting.
  2. Create a temporary folder on your desktop * to contain the exported messages.
  3. In the Export Wizard, select the temporary folder, and then select all the folders.* *
  4. When it is complete, check that the number of files in each folder to the temporary folder is one more than the number of messages in the corresponding folder of WLMail.
  5. Copy the temporary file to its final destination.
    If you use a reader not NTFS to do this, you will see a warning that certain file properties will not be copied files. This can be ignored.

* Windows Live Mail do not work with files that are not on a local drive, as opposed to an external or network drive. This is avoided by using the office as a temporary folder location. 
* If you want to export the files sampled only, select each of them containing messages. Subfolders are not automatically selected by default.

    Windows Live Mail does not open. Contacted the help people who told me to uninstall Windows Live and start over, but my computer won't uninstall it? Back to the use of Windows Mail, but now some of my emails are not received by some of their recipients even if they seem to send and there is no error message. It is not a server problem, as everything goes through, if I send directly from their site. Help please.

    Not everything goes very well for months in fact no problem since I installed that, then all of a sudden Windows Live mail does not open. He's trying, 'Start-up', but then a box will appear which says "Windows Live Mail has stopped working" and then goes on to say that we are looking for a solution, nothing. "A problem with the program to open correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"then nothing. No code, no help, zero.

  • How to send creative emails from Windows live mail to windows 98 2000 XP have received written and created.

    I create an artistic email in windows live mail and is not received, as I wrote with backgrounds and colors or sometimes even the script, by older versions of windows, IE:-2000 - XP, it happens always modified capacity versions to which it is sent, how is it overcome? Should it be sent in another format as an attachment, a message in a message, so that put and how do you do that?

    Sincerely Graham J mobbs

    Windows Live Mail does not allow scripts and other aspects of dynamic HTML.  If you have a message from OE or Windows Mail (Vista) that has these capabilities so you can send this message as a file as an attachment in a message eml and which will then open in OE or WinMail on the recipient machine.  Or you can rename it to eml to mht and who will then open in Internet Explorer on the recipient end.  But impossible to use WLM to compose such a message, as these features were eliminated in it.
     
    There are other options to overcome these limitations in Windows Live Mail, so that users can continue to be creative in their e-mail.  Seewww.oehelp.com/OEnWin7.aspx for some of them.

  • Windows live mail could not open due to low system resources

    Whenever I'm on a page that contains a link to send an e-mail message, I get the 'Windows live mail unable to open due to low system resources."  What is the reference for this?

    TIP: Start your own, new thread about your problem and your computer in this forum-online http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/livemail-program

    TIP: Make your version of IE, the full version of Windows (for example, Win7 SP1 64-bit) and your current version of Windows Live Mail (if possible) in your first post.

    Good luck!

  • How to import my AddressBook and emails from Windows Live Mail 2011 in Thunderbird?

    My new ISP had problems with Windows Live Mail so I'm now using Thunderbird for the first time. I've never used T-bird before so keep the simple instructions.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, they say.

    Apparently, the choices are slightly different after 5 years. "Import all messages from a directory '

    In the toolbar, click address book. On the Tools menu, select Import and specify the file type.

    I'm talking about opening a CSV file in a spreadsheet hereto clean up the columns and positions because it is much easier to use tools of import from Thunderbird to make. (they crack on this task)

    Analysis of e-mail may be at fault here too. Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
